Well heck with waiting for instructions from other folks, my cracked-screen 400 TiBook arrived and I didn't wait to rip it to bits.
I managed to strip the display down without too much damage to the casing. _LOTS_ of patience and a hairdryer for heat still resulted in some damage which I fettled as best I could. I attached the temporarily-taped-together display to the 550 . . .
Sadly, as I had feared, my uncracked LCD turns out to be faulty too: <http://mywebpages.comcast.net/macdan/images/tibook/tibooklcd.jpg>
Anyone have an idea if this is a fixable type of fault? Is it the LCD or
maybe the 550 PB? The PB displays fine on an external CRT however. The
cable worked fine with the cracked LCD on the 400 but I haven't yet tried
this LCD + this cable combo on the 400. The PCBs on the cracked LCD are
probably OK, any use attemping some sort of swap there?
Or should I forget about the whole thing, break-n-sell these two 'Books and just wait for a 'nuther day?
